h's chair
I’ve always loved chairs, many of you know that. And one of the ideas I had for this show is to create some works inspired by chairs. I’ve done it before, years ago, and wanted to return to it. My only little problem was finding the right chairs for my liking. Thanks to my friend H who I think has just discovered how truly many chairs she owns, I don’t have to go out to the Friday market looking for these wonderful structures. She was generous enough to allow me to borrow the chairs (and actually have one yay!). This one is the first of my trilogy of chair-inspired drawings.
